1. Limp mode-You need to search this forum to address the issue.

3. Body roll-good coilovers, bigger front sway bar, m3 rear subframe bushings.
This is just to get you started and enjoy your track days, but to really make this car going there is a lot more.
Takes a lot of $$$ to make it competitive, that's why we don't see too many of our cars in club racing.
Glad to see this is not just my opinion. I learned to track it and its shortcomings became very apparent. I knew I was going pretty fast because I could keep up with some new M3s in my group but i felt I was rolling and scrubbing speed so easily.

I'm not sure in my HPDE context I will deviate from stock and I'm sure I'm not maxing out stock yet anyway but I agree.
